People were shouting the whole night and the doors are too thin to avoid the noise

Great little place to stay for a few days in Palenque! We also had to change our plans at short notice, but the hotel was super friendly and flexible with our change request of our reservation. :-)

Situated in a pretty, leafy area with several hotels and restaurants. Close to the highway and shuttles to the archaeological zone of Palenque. The area is a bit above midrange but very cosy with lots of references to the maya history

“An environment that gives you the best of the Maya world.”
Convenience: The property is in walking distance of the ADO bus. Plus, it is a very inexpensive ride to the ruins. Creativity: The hotel introduces visitors to the sculptures and carvings that have made Palenque so memorable, beginning with a full size replica of the cover of Pakal's tomb. Service: The restaurant is good, servicable, and moderate. Staff: Native Spanish speakers with plenty of English.

“lovely place. a maya museum and hotel at the same time. a must go to when you are into maya culture”
the fact that it is a museum and a hotel at the same time, when you are into Maya culture, and that’s very likely in Palenque, makes this place a must go to. nice replica’s of Maya steles. had plenty chances to do translations of the maya glyphs.

There was a nice room left on Booking.com so I booked it, but once we arrived there it turned out they didn't have any rooms left. The guy at the desk was not very friendly in this situation and they could not help us.

Great location near ado stop and near several nice cafes. Staff at front desk could not have been more helpful- we needed to print some things due to flight changes and only too happy to help. Spacious room, excellent shower and comfortable beds. A great hotel!

One of the best hotels in Palenque. The owner, Mr Marco Antonio Morales, was around one day and he was always extremely helpful and nice to us. The hotel is perhaps in the best location of Palenque, comfortable and clean. The area is nice, the facilities and surroundings are spectacular as well as the views.
